Important information for correct disposal of the product in accordance with EC Directive
2002/96/EC.
At the end of its working life, the product must not be disposed of as urban waste. It
must be taken to a special local authority differentiated waste collection centre or to
a dealer providing this service. Disposing of a household appliance separately
avoids possible negative consequences for the environment and health deriving
from inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent materials to be recovered
to obtain significant savings in energy and resources.As a reminder of the need to
dispose of household appliances separately, the product is marked with a crossedout wheeled dustbin.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket, check that:
• the mains power supply corresponds to the value indicated on the rating plate on the back
of the appliance;
• the power socket and electrical circuit are adequate for the appliance.
• the mains socket matches the plug. If this is not the case, have the plug replaced;
• the mains socket is adequately earthed. Failure to follow these important safety instructions
absolves the manufacturer of all liability.

WHAT IS THE PINGUINO
During the summer, you feel comfortable at a temperature of between 24 and 27° C with a
relative humidity of about 50%.
An air conditioner removes excess moisture and heat from the room where it is located.
Compared with installed models, portable air conditioners have the advantage that they can
be moved from one room to another in the home or be transported from one building to
another.
Hot air from the room is passed through a heat
exchanger cooled by refrigerant gas. Excess
heat and moisture are removed before
the air is re-emitted into the room.
In single unit models, a small part of
this air is used to cool the refrigerant
gas and then, when hot and damp,
is discharged outside.
In the spring and autumn, the
appliance can also be used to
heat.
The efficient heat pump system
provides a high heating capacity
with low energy consumption.
All Pinguino models can also be used
in fan-only mode.

PREPARING FOR USE
The instructions below will enable you to prepare your air conditioner for operation as efficiently as possible.
Before use, make sure the air intake and outlet grilles are unobstructed.
A
IR-CONDITIONING WITHOUT INSTALLATION
Just a few simple steps and your comfort is ensured with your
appliance:
• Fit the air exhaust hose in the housing at the back of the
appliance (fig. 1).
• Fit the window outlet to the end of the hose.
• Place the air conditioner near a window or French window.
• Adjust the length of the hose to reach the window.
• Make sure the air exhaust hose is unobstructed.
• Open the window or French window slightly and position the
outlet (fig. 2).
• If you have a double window, use the sucker provided to hold
the two parts of the window together (fig. 3).
You can also use the "adjustable bar" (T) accessory.
- Fit the window outlet in the housing in the bar (fig. 4)
- Position the bar on the window sill and adjust until it fits in
the guides of the blind (the length can be blocked with
the plastic pin provided), then lower the blind (fig. 5).
- Fit the air exhaust hose to the end of the window outlet
(see fig. 6).
- Place the air conditioner near a window or French window
and connect the end of the hose.
Keep the air hose as short and free of curves as possible to avoid
bottlenecks.

AIR-CONDITIONING WITH INSTALLATION
If required, your appliance can also be installed semi-perma-
nently (Fig. 7).
Proceed as follows:
• Drill a 134 mm dia. hole respecting the heights shown in fig. 8.
in the window pane
in the wooden kickboard
of a French window
in the wall: you are
recommended to insula-
te the section of wall
using suitable insulation.
• Fit the flange accessory provided in the hole following the
indications in figs. 9, 10 and 11.
• Fit the hose in the housing at the back of the appliance (fig.
1).
• Fit the end of the hose to the flange as shown in fig. 8. When
the hose is not fitted, the hole can be closed with the flange
cap.
Keep the air hose as short and free of curves as possible to avoid
bottlenecks.
When installing the air conditioner semi-permanently, you
should leave a door slightly open (as little as 1 cm) to gua-
rantee correct ventilation.
When using the appliance to heat a room with a high level of
humidity, condensate may appear on the outside of the air
exhaust hose. To avoid this, you can cover the hose with insu-
lation.
